What Spacestation does

Spacestation is a Brooklyn-based studio and post-production facility that provides full-service video and multimedia production for enterprise clients across television networks, streaming platforms, advertising agencies, brands, and government/non-profit organizations. Founded in 2007, the company produces more than 5,000 hours of content annually spanning commercial and branded content, food and beverage programming, entertainment/documentary, and live studio productions. Its client roster includes HBO, Netflix, Discovery, MTV, Food Network, Condé Nast, DAZN, NASDAQ, McAfee, IAC, and the United Nations, with marquee projects such as the Emmy-winning MTV Unplugged revamp, the SXSW-premiering documentaries "Well Groomed" (HBO) and "We Always Lie To Strangers" (Netflix), and the IADAS Anthem Award-winning "Life Below Water."

The studio operates from a 1,000+ sq ft Brooklyn facility with an insert stage, podcast recording room, three edit suites, and a color grading suite, augmented by proprietary technical assets including a SISU Cinema Robot for precision motion-control capture and remote "drop kits" enabling distributed multi-camera productions globally. Differentiated capabilities include end-to-end production from concept through post, studio build and launch services for clients (notably Obé Fitness, Food Network, Cooking Channel, MTV, Turner, and Daily Burn), and a content portfolio validated by Emmy awards, SXSW and Tribeca premieres, Webby and IADAS Anthem recognition, and a 94% Rotten Tomatoes critic score on "Well Groomed."

The business model is B2B project-based professional services revenue, with long-term relationships across major networks and brands. Distribution is direct enterprise sales; marketing relies on portfolio, social, awards/festival recognition, and client referrals rather than paid acquisition. Leadership consists of Founder/Executive Producer Matthew C. Mills and President/Executive Producer Chris Vivion. In May 2026, the company extended its model beyond commissioned production into IP ownership via a strategic partnership with Big Shot Pictures and Adley McBride to produce an animated "Eloise" series alongside a creator-focused incubator for animation and consumer products.
